The six media panelists asking questions in Friday night's Wisconsin Senate debate between Republican Senator Ron Johnson and Democrat challenger Mandela Barnes were clearly biased for Barnes. That isn't an opinion, that is provable, verifiable fact.
According to the latest Marquette University Law School Poll, the three most important issues to Wisconsin voters are "inflation," "crime," and "accurate vote count." There was a grand total of one question on any of those issues (crime) and it came a half hour into the hourlong debate...after questions about legalizing marijuana, amnesty for illegal immigrants, and abortion.
Meanwhile, there were no questions on the issues that the Marquette Poll identified as the top three Republicans: "Inflation," "taxes," and "accurate vote count." By contrast, five of the 19 total questions were devoted to the top three issues for Democrats: "Gun violence" (one question), "abortion" (two questions), and "climate change."
There were also two questions on January 6th, which Democrats have been hoping for months would be a primary focus of the upcoming midterms, but no questions on foreign policy (especially as it pertains to the Russia-Ukraine war), border security, health care, COVID-19, or education.
Instead, five of the 19 questions--a full 21%--were devoted to the issues Democrats care the most about, and that might be the most damning proof that the six media panelists are themselves partisan Democrats.
"The Dan O'Donnell Show" actually ranked the six media panelists who asked those questions in order of how biased they were. Listen to Monday's show to find out the rankings!
